The National Service Training Program is conceptualized primarily to develop students responsive attitude towards the community as well as to bring about changes in lives of the barangay constituents by empowering them to be actively involved in all community projects to be initiated by the students and facilitators/trainers. We were given the opportunity to choose in any of the two service components offered by University of Santo Tomas - Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS) and Literacy Training Service (LTS). CWTS refers to program or activities contributory to the general welfare and the betterment of life for the members of the community while LTS is a program designed to train students to become teachers of literacy and numeracy skills to school children, out of school youth, and other segments of society in need of their service (R.A. 9163). During our first term, the mandatory NSTP General Orientation is conducted aimed at providing the students a better understanding on NSTP as well as giving them an overview and opportunity for an informed choice for the NSTP components being offered. The UNIK: UST NSTP Ibang Klase seminar was also done for us to be oriented on our chosen program which is the Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS) through inspiring stories of challenges that empower community service. It also helped us to be acquainted with different kinds of services that one can do for the community. Disaster Risk Reduction Management was also attended and it is very informative and helpful especially in addressing the issues of disaster preparedness. It is indeed important to be knowledgeable about the hazards, vulnerabilities, capacities and actions to be done in order to assess the capacity and vulnerability of a disaster prone community. During Term 2, we are equipped with knowledge, skills and values-orientation that enable us to design short-term community development / literacy projects aligned with Thomasian Social Development Principles. We spent a maximum of 24 hours doing community services in areas covered by our partner organizations specifically Sitio Malasa, Tarlac. Unending Race 5 Km Fun Run was also participated by Thomasian sophomores for the benefit of the chosen charity of our institution. In helping out others, let us realize that we can never learn to be brave and strong if in this world we only have joy and happiness. That is why we have people around us, so that we dont have to work alone in making this world a better place to live in. We must treasure every moment of our lives and cherish all the people we meet along the way. After all, the days we spend wont turn out the same way again.
